We went for a private tour with driver Chris. He was great. First stop was at a creek with salmon swimming up a salmon ladder, then moved on to another spot along the creek where the salmon were spawning. Next we drove along the coast were we saw a bald eagle sitting at the top of a tree. Continued our tour and found many bear in a creek catching the salmon. There were 3 or 4 full grown bears and 4 cubs. I think Chris was more excited about finding the bears than we were. He had lots of info about the bears also which made it even more fun. We then stopped to see a waterfall up close and personal. Next stop was Saxman Totem Pole Park, again Chris had lots of info for us and made it all the more interesting. Finished off our day with a tour of historic creek street, and advice on where to grab a snack before we headed back to our ship. If you get a chance take a custom tour and ask for Chris.
